Eighties pop group Spandau Ballet are to make a comeback, two decades after their bitter split.

The standard bearers of the New Romantic movement are expected to their reformation at a “very special announcement” in London today (March 25th).

The British group, who are famous for such hits as “True” and “Gold,” are set to embark on a world tour and are looking into releasing new material, according to lead singer Tony Hadley.

“The boys are back in town and we can’t wait,” Hadley told The Independent. “It’s going to be brilliant, we’re very excited, but it will be very different.

“There will be all the hits, the nostalgia, but there will also be a new take on what Spandau Ballet are about.”

Spandau Ballet are the latest in a series of British bands to reunite. Take That and the Police have both staged successful comeback tours in recent years and Blur are reforming for a series of gigs this summer.
